COVID-19: African Americans & Health Disparities
Why does COVID-19 impact the Black community with such force here in the United States? This virtual series, produced by Detroit Public Television in association with AARP of Michigan, digs into the how and why of the situation to answer that question.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic began earlier this year, one thing has become abundantly clear: the coronavirus impacts the African American community at a disproportionate rate when compared with other populations.
To help make sense of why this continues to be the case, The Wright has partnered with Detroit Public Television to present a new virtual series (sponsored, in part, by our friends at AARP Michigan) about the historical, political, and social factors intensifying the impact of this virus on America’s Black population.
